Thread: noobie saying hi ,and

Unfortunately, I think you may have bought a poor razor. I don't see the brand name anywhere, but it looks like the typical eBay/Pakistani razors that do NOT hold an edge and are not worth anything.

If that is what it is, you may get one or two good shaves out of it. I know from experience, as I bought a Zeepk kit just before I found this forum. I only got one good shave out of mine. Also, the strop I received was poor quality and had a very large bend/crease, rendering it useless.

In all honesty, before shaving, I would recommend looking in our B/S/T and buying a shave ready vintage razor from one of the members. Have it handy when you first shave, that way you can use both and really tell the difference.

Don't mean to be the bearer of bad news! Welcome and Good luck
